There are many causes for nasal obstruction such as deviated nasal septum, chronic rhinosinusitis, allergic rhinitis, inferior turbinate hypertrophy, nasal polyps etc. Treatment depends on diagnosis. You need to consult nearby ENT specialist
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required. Meanwhile you stop using Otrivin as long term use can increase your symptoms
